    After their second Holden and Senda just sat there looking shocked. Even now he doesn't look like he's recovered. 

    Over the last two weeks I've constantly thought about what the Not Top 20 podcast said: Charlton made some excellent signings, and the biggest question is how good is Dean Holden?

    Obviously injuries are a huge problem at the moment, but I don't feel like this side has an identity. We're not possession, we're not hoofball, we're not strong defensively, we're not counter attack, we're kind of a little of everything and a lot of nothing. We seen to just hope that our quality will outshine theirs. 

    Dean seems like a lovely guy and a great ambassador. But I have serious questions about his tactical abilities. We lump the ball into the channels and bypass the midfield a lot, and that takes our strongest part of the team out of the game. We have four good L1 CBs and we don't defend well.

    I...am worried. I wonder how patient the new owners will be. 
    Good post. This sums it up for me. It’s worrying for me that we couldn’t contain the game after we went 1-0 up. We should have been able to contain the game and then build on it. Instead it was a slow progression to go 2-1 down. And only then did we wake up again. Why is that!?
    Definitely a cause for concern.

    We have them under the caut but I have no idea what formation we're playing. It's park football. 
  • We are getting some great chances, a lovely May shot tipped over for a corner...COYR

    Front 2 score.

    Thats the way to do it. 
    If only we had a front 3.

    Lovely turn from Kanu but the left foot volley goes wide

      Substitution

      Substitution, Charlton Athletic. Terell Thomas replaces Tayo Edun.

    At least we have changed from a 45 minutes side to a 60 minute one.

    From what I can work out it's:

    AMB in goal,

    Everyone else not 
  • Wonderful shot outside the box from Dobson tipped round the post for a corner...so near there
    And the resulting corner ???

      Attempt missed. Daniel Kanu (Charlton Athletic) left footed shot from the centre of the box is high and wide to the left. Assisted by Diallang Jaiyesimi with a cross following a corner.

    It might be 3-4-1-2 with CBT at LWB and DJ as the 10 behind the two strikers

    If we never had CBT / Dobo / Kanu / Anderson / Asiimwe / Ness, we'd be up Creek Road without a ULEZ compliant motor

    Tyler Goodrham sounds like someone from Neighbours.

    Sorry as you were.

    That's the sort of relentless positivity that has become firmly embedded in our psyche over the last 15 years...
